Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP Customization To: Michael Schumacher

Firstly thank you very much for the reply.

*Final result :* What I intend to do is image interpretation for intelligence and refining the particulars of the image with tools like Sharpening, Color change(Contrast), Hue saturatiuon and finally get a WYSIWYG ICC matching profile as per the printer.I would add few annotations and use few symbols here and there.

1. To reduce the plugins which the exact directory and the file which i should edit.

My directory structure is given below for your reference.

C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ bin C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ etc
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ lib
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ libexec
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ Python
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ Share
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ uninst

Want to use GIMP for map publishing.Please help me with the links of source code download.

0. Specify what the result should be

1. First is procedure for compiling.

2. Second is customization procedure for reducing menu structure.

3. Also tell me how can change the logo.

Without 0., there's no point in doing any of the other steps - first because you won't have a way to check if you've reached your goal, and second because anyone who is willing to help is curious to know what the help is going into.

Step 2 can be done without any recompiling, because

a) you can remove any plug-ins you don't want

and

b) the menu layout is already customizable to some extent

Regards, Michael

I don't think that's what Michael Schumacher meant by his question, but if not he will verify. MY intpretation of what what he is asking is WHY are you wanting to remove menu items. Based upon your original email, my assumption(yes, I know it was wrong of me to assume but we can only go with the information provided) is that you plan to rebuild GIMP and sell it commercially or install it onto a number of computers such as in a school, senior center, or some other such place where you want to reduce complexity for other users. Though I could be wrong, I just can't see why anyone would care so much about extra(not needed for their personal use) menu items so much that they would want to go through the hassles of editing source code and compiling themselves. ie, what is your end goal of making the modifications in the first place? Not what you want to change, but WHY are those changes so important to you as to spend so much effort to do so?
